thanks everyone!

BoobieinPA asked for some info so here you go!

I have lived in PA for almost 4 years (I'm originally from San Diego). Now usually the next question I get is, "why would you move from SoCal to PA? Well I heard that the weather was better
TRUTH (wife's family)

I have 2 kids 6 and 2. I have a lovely wife who is a school teacher, I'm a congregational minister and for my secular job, I'm a Respiratory therapist.

I did some MDing as kid with my father, it was a great time for us to be together so I thought that me and my son (he's 6) could have some fun with it too.

I have a White's Prizm III (I figured this would be a great learning machine and from what I understand White's has incredible service. I do plan on passing this one down to my son and upgrading but not for some time).

I adore the excitement on his face when we just talk about MDing, He gets so excited he can hardly stand it . For instance, I was going through some pennies with a magnifying glass last night just to check them out (found a couple of Wheaties I didn't know I had), he was so excited that he ran into his room and brought me all the pennies he had so I could look at them too (He has a lot of pennies). I didn't want to disappoint him so I told him to help me by going through all of his pennies and just pulling out the wheaties; he actually had a few! It was fun!

There is about 18 in. of snow on the ground here so my searching has been limited to research which I love to do as well. The more research I do now, will help to pay off in the spring!
